A further Pumpkin resource has been endorsed by Edexcel for use with Edexcel's GCSE: D&T: Textiles Technology. 

“Textiles: Eco-Design” looks at how the textile industry is rising to the challenge of reducing the environmental impact of their products through eco-design. The resource is well matched to the sustainability aspects of the specification. It also encourages learners to consider the development of a product and how it can be continually improved upon.  The DVD also provides detailed worksheets of particular benefit for higher achieving candidates requiring extension activities. 

A second title: “Textiles: Industrial Finishing Processes” has been added to Edexcel's recommended resources list.  It looks at the range of chemical and physical finishes now available and how their application is creating ever more technical materials.
